Cultures of Fusarium oxysporum Schl. emend. Sny. et Hans. f lycopersici (Sacc.) Sny. et Hans. grown on a liquid medium with glucose as the principal carbon source produce, among other products, the phytotoxin lycomarasmin. Acid hydrolysis of lycomarasmin results in the formation of aspartic acid, glycine, and pyruvic acid. Tracer studies showed that glycine-U-I4C, L-serine-U-14C, DL-aspartic acid-4-14C, DL-alanine-1-14C, and glucose-U-14C served as relatively efficient precursors of the lycomarasmin molecule. DL-Aspartic acid-4-I4C was incorporated into the 4-carbon fragment without label scrambling. Glycine was found to be the most efficient precursor of the 2-carbon fragment while glucose afforded the most efficient and direct route for the 3-carbon fragment.

1. Inhibition of ox liver glutamate dehydrogenase with N-(N′-acetyl-4[35S]-sulphamoylphenyl)maleimide (ASPM) is more specific at pH7·3 than at pH6·9. At pH7·3 inhibition accompanies the incorporation at 1 mole of ASPM residues into about 53000g. of protein. 2. Digestion of the modified protein with chymotrypsin and trypsin yields a unique radioactive peptide. 3. Acid hydrolysis of 1 mole of this peptide yields 1 mole of N∈-succin-2-yl-lysine. The ∈-amino group of a lysyl residue is thus the site of modification of the protein. 4. The sequence containing the modified lysyl residue is: [Formula: see text] where Asx respresents either aspartic acid or asparagine.

ABSTRACT A procedure for the quantitative determination of 5β-pregnan-3α-ol-20-one in urine is described. After acid hydrolysis of the pregnanolone-conjugates in urine, the free steroids are extracted with toluene. Pregnanolone is isolated in a pure form as its acetate; after chromatographic separation of the free steroids on alumina, the fraction containing pregnanolone is acetylated and rechromatographed on alumina. Quantitative determination of the isolated pregnanolone-acetate is carried out with the aid of the infrared spectrum recorded by a micro KBr-wafermethod. The reliability of the method under various conditions is discussed under the headings, specificity, accuracy, precision and sensitivity. It is possible to determine 30–40 μg pregnanolone in a 24-hours urine portion with a precision of 25%.

Abstract Background Burning fast-growing trees for energy production can be an effective alternative to coal combustion. Thus, lignocellulosic material, which can be used to obtain chemicals with a high added value, is highly abundant, easily renewed and usually inexpensive. In this work, hemicellulose extraction by acid hydrolysis of plant biomass from three different crops (Chamaecytisus proliferus, Leucaena diversifolia and Paulownia trihybrid) was modelled and the resulting solid residues were used for energy production. Results The influence of the nature of the lignocellulosic raw material and the operating conditions used to extract the hemicellulose fraction on the heat capacity and activation energy of the subsequent combustion process was examined. The heat power and the activation energy of the combustion process were found to depend markedly on the hemicellulose content of the raw material. Thus, a low content in hemicelluloses resulted in a lower increased energy yield after acid hydrolysis stage. The process was also influenced by the operating conditions of the acid hydrolysis treatment, which increased the gross calorific value (GCV) of the solid residue by 0.6–9.7% relative to the starting material. In addition, the activation energy of combustion of the acid hydrolysis residues from Chamaecytisus proliferus (Tagasaste) and Paulownia trihybrid (Paulownia) was considerably lower than that for the starting materials, the difference increasing with increasing degree of conversion as well as with increasing temperature and acid concentration in the acid hydrolysis. The activation energy of combustion of the solid residues from acid hydrolysis of tagasaste and paulownia decreased markedly with increasing degree of conversion, and also with increasing temperature and acid concentration in the acid hydrolysis treatment. No similar trend was observed in Leucaena diversifolia (Leucaena) owing to its low content in hemicelluloses. Conclusions Acid hydrolysis of tagasaste, leucaena and paulownia provided a valorizable liquor containing a large amount of hemicelluloses and a solid residue with an increased heat power amenable to efficient valorization by combustion. There are many potential applications of the hemicelluloses-rich and lignin-rich fraction, for example as multi-components of bio-based feedstocks for 3D printing, for energy and other value-added chemicals.
